The program will start at 7 p.m. at the Mount Hope Methodist church. We hope all the parents and friends will plan to come and see what the children have done. BUSY THREE 4-H CLUB The Busy Three 4-H Club met at the Ringwood Methodist church last Monday night, June 12.

SQUARE DANCERS There were several couples who went to the Allendale school annual carnival and activities on Friday of last week. This included square dancing so you see those square dance enthusiasts were there. It was quite chilly in between dances though. Saturday night found the Checkerboard square members dancing in the city park band shell in McHenry. This was fun and different for the group. Those from here to enjoy the dancing in the band shell were Rich and Chris Gillespie, Dave and Patti Miller and Walt and Doris Low. The Checkerboard squares were joined by several couples from the Senior Citizens square dancing group. Fun was had by all and especially with the grills that the officers supplied. Everyone enjoyed the hot dogs, brat- wurst, pidi's roasted mar- shmallows, etc. PLANS IN PROGRESS FOR CHICKEN BAR-B-Q Plans are well underway for the sixth annual chicken bar-b- q to be held on the lawn Sunday, July 9, at the Ringwood United Methodist church.

Whether your thumb at the end of an extended arm breaks the law in Illinois, will depend upon a number of factors in­ cluding where you stand in relation to the traffic and what road you are traveling. The Illinois State Bar association says hitch-hiking can be legal in this state provided the hiker remains on the "berm" or shoulder of the Mrs. Alice Mae Wilcox has her day, and brother, Walt Low, Bill Cristy and Jim D. O'Halleran who will be 7 all share their natal day of the first of July. May we wish all of you a very happy day! ANNIVERSARIES On June 27 Wes and Wanda Bruce exchanged vows and now they exchange words, as the years pass we hope you enjoy the happiest of yeats. Best wishes. Frank Kempfer is enjoying a few days with his son and family in Genoa. It's chicken barbecue time again and one can't get too much of that good stuff. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Harrison, Chancey and Allen enjoyed it a la Lions' Club style in Huntley on Sunday. They saw others who can't wait until July 9 for Ringwood's serving; Mr. and Mrs. Walt Wilcox of Woodstock. There were perhaps more from this locality, too. Thirteen hundred chicken halves were being prepared and it looked like an overflow crowd. Can Ringwood top that? ' Eight hundred halves are being or­ dered but if advance ticket sales warrant it, it can be in­ creased as of June 30, the order deadline. Do you have your ticket? road, or otherwise at a distance from traffic and provided the hiker is not on the right-of-way of a toll highway or other limited-access express high­ way. By Oder of the Illinois State Toll Highway commission, tollways are off-limits and, generally speaking, the same goes for other limited--access highways. Also, some com­ munities may have local or­ dinances which prohibit hitch­ hiking within their boundaries under any circumstances. Otherwise, the only prohibition in Illinois law against hitch-hiking says that no person may "stand in a roadway" for the purpose of soliciting a ride. A "Roadway" is paved or improved portion of the road reserved for vehicular traffic so the hiker who stays on the shoulder of the road, or farther removed, is on safe ground. The Illinois law is a reasonably good guide as to the practices concerning hitch­ hiking in other states. However, the ISBA notes, law enforcement authorities in all states generally frown on hitch­ hiking because of the dangers. These include the possibility of causing a rear-end collision when a car stops to pick up passengers and the risk of being picked up by, or picking up, the wrong company. The ISBA reports it receives many questions concerning the legality of hitch-hiking, mostly from young people who plan a hitch-hiking tour of the country. The bar group urges inquirers to stay well away from lanes of traffic, in keeping with the law, to avoid tollways and other limited access high­ ways and obey "no hitch­ hiking" and "no pedestrians" signs wherever these are posted. For their part, motorists who pick up hitch-hikers should exercise the utmost caution and should give ample warning to other traffic of their intention to make a stop. Loading or unloading passengers on the open highway is a dangerous practice at best. Moreover, on many highways drivers are prohibited by law from stop­ ping except in cases of emergency THIS WORLD!
